Honestly man... I would look for a Doctor that comes from THIS Century. Even though it would be a hassle to find another Doctor, and you'll lose that comfortability factor, it all comes down to what helps you best. Benzos have helped me a great deal IF you're not using them as your primary medication. It's great as an "add-on" medication. If I start to feel a little bit out of it, it brings me back down to the "normal" level without making me want to pass out cold and sleep for the rest of the day. There are basically no side effects. And, 2 years ago, after taking both Celexa and Clonazepam for about 2 years, I quit both cold turkey because I wanted to see what would happen if I went without medications, and honestly, neither of them were that hard to quit.Maybe you could even still see the same doctor for Therapy and whatnot, but get another doctor to monitor your medications. That's actually what I'm looking into for myself at the moment because my PDoc is too old-school to know how to properly administer some of the newer MS's.
